Carl Orff

Carl Orff's philosophy is about integrating music into the classroom as much as possible every day.  Many instruments are used and children's natural play is greatly encouraged.  A lot of times in a Carl Orff classroom, children are asked to create their own rhythms, songs, or use instruments to represent different characters from stories.  Children nowadays love to express themselves in their own ways, which is why allowing children to create new and exciting aspects to lessons is a great way to make them excited about school!  Children learn their normal lesson, learn more about music concepts, and have a great time learning when the Carl Orff approach is used.
